Abstract
Background
Exceeding speed limits is one of the most dangerous violations, causing severe injuries and many deaths every year. For that, several research works focused on understanding and explaining speeding behavior. The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) is widely used to understand and explain several human behaviors based on three primary constructs: attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. However, several studies have used different versions of the TPB to explain and understand speeding behavior, which constitutes a source of confusion for researchers and intervention designers.
Objective
Based on the Theory of Planned Behavior, this study aimed to identify the main determinants of speeding behavior by screening and analyzing the results of relevant studies in the literature.
Methods
A literature review will identify relevant research related to using TPB to explain and understand speeding behavior. Subsequently, a meta-analysis will synthesize and combine the results of the selected studies, providing an improved TPB model of speeding behavior.
Results
The obtained results suggest that in addition to the three standard constructs of the original TPB, moral norms and past behavior should be included as key determinants of speeding intention and behavior.
Conclusion
Moral norms and past behavior have been found to be key determinants of speeding behavior. This finding will contribute to the development of more effective behavior change interventions aimed at encouraging adherence to speed limits by taking into account the influence of moral norms and past behavior.
期刊介绍:
Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour focuses on the behavioural and psychological aspects of traffic and transport. The aim of the journal is to enhance theory development, improve the quality of empirical studies and to stimulate the application of research findings in practice. TRF provides a focus and a means of communication for the considerable amount of research activities that are now being carried out in this field. The journal provides a forum for transportation researchers, psychologists, ergonomists, engineers and policy-makers with an interest in traffic and transport psychology.
